-## Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 (LTS) (64-bit)
|
|
|
+##Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Ubuntu Trusty comes with a 3.13.0 Linux kernel, and a `docker.io` package which
|
|
|
-installs Docker 1.0.1 and all its prerequisites from Ubuntu's repository.
|
|
|
+Docker requires a 64-bit installation regardless of your Ubuntu version.
|
|
|
+Additionally, your kernel must be 3.10 at minimum. The latest 3.10 minor version
|
|
|
+or a newer maintained version are also acceptable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-> **Note**:
|
|
|
-> Ubuntu (and Debian) contain a much older KDE3/GNOME2 package called ``docker``, so the
|
|
|
-> Ubuntu-maintained package and executable are named ``docker.io``.
|
|
|
+Kernels older than 3.10 lack some of the features required to run Docker
|
|
|
+containers. These older versions are known to have bugs which cause data loss
|
|
|
+and frequently panic under certain conditions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-### Ubuntu-maintained Package Installation
|
|
|
+To check your current kernel version, open a terminal and use `uname -r` to display
|
|
|
+your kernel version:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-To install the latest Ubuntu package (this is **not** the most recent Docker release):
|
|
|
+ $ uname -r
|
|
|
+ 3.11.0-15-generic
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo apt-get update
|
|
|
- $ sudo apt-get install docker.io
|
|
|
+>**Caution** Some Ubuntu OS versions **require a version higher than 3.10** to
|
|
|
+>run Docker, see the prerequisites on this page that apply to your Ubuntu
|
|
|
+>version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Then, to enable tab-completion of Docker commands in BASH, either restart BASH or:
|
|
|
+###For Trusty 14.04
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ source /etc/bash_completion.d/docker*
|
|
|
+There are no prerequisites for this version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-> **Note**:
|
|
|
-> Since the Ubuntu package is quite dated at this point, you may want to use
|
|
|
-> the following section to install the most recent release of Docker.
|
|
|
-> If you install the Docker version, you do not need to install ``docker.io`` from Ubuntu.
|
|
|
+###For Precise 12.04 (LTS)
|
|
|
|
|
|
-### Docker-maintained Package Installation
|
|
|
+For Ubuntu Precise, Docker requires the 3.13 kernel version. If your kernel
|
|
|
+version is older than 3.13, you must upgrade it. Refer to this table to see
|
|
|
+which packages are required for your environment:

-## Ubuntu Precise 12.04 (LTS) (64-bit)
|
|
|
+##Installing Docker on Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
|
|
-This installation path should work at all times.
|
|
|
+Make sure you have intalled the prerequisites for your Ubuntu version. Then,
|
|
|
+install Docker using the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-### Dependencies
|
|
|
+1. Log into your Ubuntu installation as a user with `sudo` privileges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-**Linux kernel 3.13**
|
|
|
+2. Verify that you have `wget` installed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-For Ubuntu Precise, the currently recommended kernel version is 3.13.
|
|
|
-Ubuntu Precise installations with older kernels must be upgraded. The
|
|
|
-kernel you'll install when following these steps has AUFS built in.
|
|
|
-We also include the generic headers to enable packages that depend on them,
|
|
|
-like ZFS and the VirtualBox guest additions. If you didn't install the
|
|
|
-headers for your "precise" kernel, then you can skip these headers for the
|
|
|
-"trusty" kernel. If you're unsure, you should include the headers for safety.
|
|
|
+ $ which wget
|
|
|
|
|
|
-> **Warning**:
|
|
|
-> Kernels 3.8 and 3.11 are no longer supported by Canonical. Systems
|
|
|
-> running these kernels need to be updated using the instructions below.
|
|
|
-> Running Docker on these unsupported systems isn't supported either.
|
|
|
-> These old kernels are no longer patched for security vulnerabilities
|
|
|
-> and severe bugs which lead to data loss.
|
|
|
+ If `wget` isn't installed, install it after updating your manager:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Please read the installation instructions for backported kernels at
|
|
|
-Ubuntu.org to understand why you also need to install the Xorg packages
|
|
|
-when running Docker on a machine with a graphical environment like Unity.

-### Installation
|
|
|
+ The system prompts you for your `sudo` password. Then, it downloads and

|
|
|
+4. Verify `docker` is installed correctly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Docker is available as a Debian package, which makes installation easy.
|
|
|
-**See the** [*Mirrors*](#mirrors) **section below if you are not

|
|
|
+The `docker` daemon binds to a Unix socket instead of a TCP port. By default
|
|
|
+that Unix socket is owned by the user `root` and other users can access it with
|
|
|
+`sudo`. For this reason, `docker` daemon always runs as the `root` user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo sh -c "echo deb https://get.docker.com/ubuntu docker main\
|
|
|
- > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list"
|
|
|
- $ sudo apt-get update
|
|
|
- $ sudo apt-get install lxc-docker
|
|
|
+To avoid having to use `sudo` when you use the `docker` command, create a Unix
|
|
|
+group called `docker` and add users to it. When the `docker` daemon starts, it
|
|
|
+makes the ownership of the Unix socket read/writable by the `docker` group.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-> **Note**:

|
|
+4. Save and close the file.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
-**Done!**, now continue with the [User Guide](/userguide/).
|
|
|
+6. Reboot your system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-### Upgrade
|
|
|
|
|
|
-To install the latest version of Docker, use the standard
|
|
|
-`apt-get` method:
|
|
|
+### Enable UFW forwarding
|
|
|
|
|
|
- # update your sources list
|
|
|
- $ sudo apt-get update
|
|
|
+If you use [UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall)](https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW)
|
|
|
+on the same host as you run Docker, you'll need to do additional configuration.
|
|
|
+Docker uses a bridge to manage container networking. By default, UFW drops all
|
|
|
+forwarding traffic. As a result, for Docker to run when UFW is
|
|
|
+enabled, you must set UFW's forwarding policy appropriately.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- # install the latest
|
|
|
- $ sudo apt-get install lxc-docker
|
|
|
+Also, UFW's default set of rules denies all incoming traffic. If you want to be able
|
|
|
+to reach your containers from another host then you should also allow incoming
|
|
|
+connections on the Docker port (default `2375`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
-## Giving non-root access
|
|
|
+To configure UFW and allow incoming connections on the Docker port:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-The `docker` daemon always runs as the `root` user, and since Docker
|
|
|
-version 0.5.2, the `docker` daemon binds to a Unix socket instead of a
|
|
|
-TCP port. By default that Unix socket is owned by the user `root`, and
|
|
|
-so, by default, you can access it with `sudo`.
|
|
|
+1. Log into Ubuntu as a user with `sudo` privileges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Starting in version 0.5.3, if you (or your Docker installer) create a
|
|
|
-Unix group called `docker` and add users to it, then the `docker` daemon
|
|
|
-will make the ownership of the Unix socket read/writable by the `docker`
|
|
|
-group when the daemon starts. The `docker` daemon must always run as the
|
|
|
-`root` user, but if you run the `docker` client as a user in the
|
|
|
-`docker` group then you don't need to add `sudo` to all the client
|
|
|
-commands. From Docker 0.9.0 you can use the `-G` flag to specify an
|
|
|
-alternative group.
|
|
|
+2. Verify that UFW is installed and enabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-> **Warning**:
|
|
|
-> The `docker` group (or the group specified with the `-G` flag) is
|
|
|
-> `root`-equivalent; see [*Docker Daemon Attack Surface*](
|
|
|
-> /articles/security/#docker-daemon-attack-surface) for details.
|
|
|
+ $ sudo ufw status
|
|
|
|
|
|
-**Example:**
|
|
|
+3. Open the `/etc/default/ufw` file for editing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- # Add the docker group if it doesn't already exist.
|
|
|
- $ sudo groupadd docker
|
|
|
+ $ sudo nano /etc/default/ufw
|
|
|
|
|
|
- # Add the connected user "${USER}" to the docker group.
|
|
|
- # Change the user name to match your preferred user.
|
|
|
- # You may have to logout and log back in again for
|
|
|
- # this to take effect.
|
|
|
- $ sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} docker
|
|
|
+4. Set the `DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY` policy to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- # Restart the Docker daemon.
|
|
|
- # If you are in Ubuntu 14.04, use docker.io instead of docker
|
|
|
- $ sudo service docker restart
|
|
|
+ DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="ACCEPT"
|
|
|
|
|
|
-## Memory and Swap Accounting
|
|
|
+5. Save and close the file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-If you want to enable memory and swap accounting, you must add the
|
|
|
-following command-line parameters to your kernel:
|
|
|
+6. Reload UFW to use the new setting.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1
|
|
|
+ $ sudo ufw reload
|
|
|
|
|
|
-On systems using GRUB (which is the default for Ubuntu), you can add
|
|
|
-those parameters by editing `/etc/default/grub` and
|
|
|
-extending `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX`. Look for the
|
|
|
-following line:
|
|
|
+7. Allow incoming connections on the Docker port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
|
|
|
+ $ sudo ufw allow 2375/tcp
|
|
|
|
|
|
-And replace it by the following one:
|
|
|
+### Configure a DNS server for use by Docker
|
|
|
|
|
|
- GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1"
|
|
|
+Systems that run Ubuntu or an Ubuntu derivative on the desktop typically use
|
|
|
+`127.0.0.1` as the default `nameserver` in `/etc/resolv.conf` file. The
|
|
|
+NetworkManager also sets up `dnsmasq` to use the real DNS servers of the
|
|
|
+connection and sets up `nameserver 127.0.0.1` in /`etc/resolv.conf`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Then run `sudo update-grub`, and reboot.
|
|
|
+When starting containers on desktop machines with these configurations, Docker
|
|
|
+users see this warning:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-These parameters will help you get rid of the following warnings:
|
|
|
+ WARNING: Local (127.0.0.1) DNS resolver found in resolv.conf and containers
|
|
|
+ can't use it. Using default external servers : [8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4]
|
|
|
|
|
|
- WARNING: Your kernel does not support cgroup swap limit.
|
|
|
- WARNING: Your kernel does not support swap limit capabilities. Limitation discarded.
|
|
|
+The warning occurs because Docker containers can't use the local DNS nameserver.
|
|
|
+Instead, Docker defaults to using an external nameserver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
+To avoid this warning, you can specify a DNS server for use by Docker
|
|
|
+containers. Or, you can disable `dnsmasq` in NetworkManager. Though, disabiling
|
|
|
+`dnsmasq` might make DNS resolution slower on some networks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-On Linux Mint, the `cgroup-lite` and `apparmor` packages are not
|
|
|
-installed by default. Before Docker will work correctly, you will need
|
|
|
-to install this via:
|
|
|
+To specify a DNS server for use by Docker:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install cgroup-lite apparmor
|
|
|
+1. Log into Ubuntu as a user with `sudo` privileges.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-## Docker and UFW
|
|
|
+2. Open the `/etc/default/docker` file for editing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Docker uses a bridge to manage container networking. By default, UFW
|
|
|
-drops all forwarding traffic. As a result you will need to enable UFW
|
|
|
-forwarding:
|
|
|
+ $ sudo nano /etc/default/docker
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo nano /etc/default/ufw
|
|
|
+3. Add a setting for Docker.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- # Change:
|
|
|
- # DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="DROP"
|
|
|
- # to
|
|
|
- DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="ACCEPT"
|
|
|
+ DOCKER_OPTS="--dns 8.8.8.8"
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Then reload UFW:
|
|
|
+ Replace `8.8.8.8` with a local DNS server such as `192.168.1.1`. You can also
|
|
|
+ specify multiple DNS servers. Separated them with spaces, for example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo ufw reload
|
|
|
+ --dns 8.8.8.8 --dns 192.168.1.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
-UFW's default set of rules denies all incoming traffic. If you want to
|
|
|
-be able to reach your containers from another host then you should allow
|
|
|
-incoming connections on the Docker port (default 2375):
|
|
|
+ >**Warning**: If you're doing this on a laptop which connects to various
|
|
|
+ >networks, make sure to choose a public DNS server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo ufw allow 2375/tcp
|
|
|
+4. Save and close the file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-## Docker and local DNS server warnings
|
|
|
+5. Restart the Docker daemon.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Systems which are running Ubuntu or an Ubuntu derivative on the desktop
|
|

+ $ sudo restart docker
|
|
|
|
|
|
-When starting containers on these desktop machines, users will see a

|
|
|
|
- WARNING: Local (127.0.0.1) DNS resolver found in resolv.conf and containers can't use it. Using default external servers : [8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4]
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
|
-This warning is shown because the containers can't use the local DNS
|
|
|
-nameserver and Docker will default to using an external nameserver.
|
|
|
+**Or, as an alternative to the previous procedure,** disable `dnsmasq` in
|
|
|
+NetworkManager (this might slow your network).
|
|
|
|
|
|
-This can be worked around by specifying a DNS server to be used by the
|
|
|
-Docker daemon for the containers:
|
|
|
+1. Open the `/etc/default/docker` file for editing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo nano /etc/default/docker
|
|
|
- ---
|
|
|
- # Add:
|
|
|
- DOCKER_OPTS="--dns 8.8.8.8"
|
|
|
- # 8.8.8.8 could be replaced with a local DNS server, such as 192.168.1.1
|
|
|
- # multiple DNS servers can be specified: --dns 8.8.8.8 --dns 192.168.1.1
|
|
|
+ $ sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
-The Docker daemon has to be restarted:
|
|
|
+2. Comment out the `dns=dsnmasq` line:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo restart docker
|
|
|
+ dns=dnsmasq
|
|
|
|
|
|
-> **Warning**:
|
|
|
-> If you're doing this on a laptop which connects to various networks,
|
|
|
-> make sure to choose a public DNS server.
|
|
|
+3. Save and close the file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-An alternative solution involves disabling dnsmasq in NetworkManager by
|
|
|
-following these steps:
|
|
|
+4. Restart both the NetworkManager and Docker.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
|
|
|
- ----
|
|
|
- # Change:
|
|
|
- dns=dnsmasq
|
|
|
- # to
|
|
|
- #dns=dnsmasq
|
|
|
+ $ sudo restart network-manager $ sudo restart docker
|
|
|
|
|
|
-NetworkManager and Docker need to be restarted afterwards:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- $ sudo restart network-manager
|
|
|
- $ sudo restart docker
|
|
|
+## Upgrade Docker
|
|
|
|
|
|
-> **Warning**: This might make DNS resolution slower on some networks.
|
|
|
+To install the latest version of Docker, use the standard `-N` flag with `wget`:

|
|
|
-## Mirrors
|
|
|
+ $ wget -N https://get.docker.com/ | sh
|
|
|
|
|
